HydroFoam Pintails

The removable self-righting keel weights are designed to keep the decoys upright in choppy water, preventing them from flipping over. You can remove them if you are hunting in shallow, calm water where a lower profile is preferred or if you need to reduce weight for a long hike into the marsh.

Yes, the HydroFoam construction is engineered for high-performance field use. While foam is generally resilient, it is important to avoid dragging them over sharp ice or jagged rocks to maintain the integrity of the paint and foam surface over time.

The set includes a balanced mix of six decoys, featuring a combination of active drakes, rester drakes, and hens. This variety helps create a more natural, realistic spread that mimics a flock on the water.

The entire set of six decoys weighs 5.625 lbs, making them quite lightweight compared to standard hard-plastic decoys. This makes them an excellent choice for hunters who need to pack their gear long distances into remote hunting spots.

Because they are made of foam, it is best to store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use to prevent the paint from fading or the foam from degrading. Ensure they are completely dry before packing them away for the off-season.
